This A- list singer has been known to have her fans purchase coke for her and other drugs so she never has to actually pay for it herself. Most of the time the fans who buy it for her just get a quick thanks. Lots of times they just have to pass it over to a bodyguard and they never get to say anything to their idol.

Can't be Katy Perry, the whole thing about her dealer being some well known dude,hmm. No way Christina Aguilera, she's pg. Taylor Swift, can't imagine her being high OR canny enough for that. Mimi would never get that close to the rabble. Kesha is in recovery, who's left??

Makes no sense, how the hell do the fans know what to purchase her or where to bring it if she doesn't talk to them. What she posts on twitter, "HI, I NEED SNOW, bring it to such and such and this time", and people actually do it?!?

Morning Reno! Just for you I picked Gaga over her. Aside from the fact that I think Gaga is a shitty person who would do this, your boo is definitely higher ranked than Gaga. I like to think the negative is a sign she's on her way out. Finally.

It's not that I can't see your Katy doing coke (lotsa stories about her having a dealer), I just can't see her being like this with her fans. She's always come across as being really down to earth. Plus, she's your boo!

Nope. I am reading this as someone who is far from being a recreational user. Even guys like B-REAL (seriously) have rules to not touch drugs from strangers, after he smoked a laced blunt from a fan way back when.

The singers I've known to be the worst about requesting/taking drugs from fans are Exene (huge fan, sorry but true) and Fat Mike.

@LadyH Somehow googling Exene led me on a wiki spiral of doom into reading the plot summary of Cronenberg's "Cosmopolis." That is probably the strangest yet most uninteresting film plot I've read so far. And the main actor is Foot Face. What the hell Cronenberg.

Anyway I love NOFX and Fat Wreck and Fat Mike. I always wanted to work at Fat Wreck, about 75% of the bands I listen to on the reg have an album on their label. But that coke news is nawesome and it's probably good that I have indecision issues and switched majors. But I will still listen to Wolves In Wolves' Clothing and sing really loudly when drunk. (Good news: I don't really drink anymore)

Niiiice!Fat Mike is probably the most insane person I've met. No clue how he's still alive. Somehow, he is also remarkably functional, unlike Exene, who also suffers from MSMike will take or chug whatever you do not hide. You should watch their docuseries reality show about NOFX's world touring, if you want a good idea of what that must be like.He also considers hazing/pranks to be an artform. He especially enjoys ordering ludicrous burgers like the 20x20 at InNOut and making roadies eat them.

I have no idea who my favorite Fat label band would be. I've always been partial to the Utters and Propagandhi, but in terms of newer additions, I like SFH

Hey, she gave them a not-so-cute, condescending nickname, so they damn well better reciprocate by getting her drugs. I see fucking red whenever I read about rich people holding out their greedy hands for free shit. Fuck them!

Gaga's pretty much broadcast her coke predilection across every communications medium. And cokeheads... oy.

But is this such a shock? It's a long-standing Tradition for fans to offer drugs to rock/pop icons as tribute; it is an honor to think their gift will be in the bloodstream of their idol. Besides, it remains SOP for said icons--during post-rehab interviews--to lay the blame for their addictions at the door of "sycophantic fans & hangers-on."

Today, singers like Gaga, Bieber, Perry, &c, prefer to mingle with fans behind the sterile facade of social media access. Savvy & dedicated fans seeking an intimate connection, tho, can still do their homework, identify their idol's DoC, & find out if a quality drug Offering will be accepted ("Wow; She's gonna snort/inject/smoke the 8-ball/oxys/blunt I gave that guy. He even made me sign an NDA... (swoon)." Meanwhile, the starry-eyed simp who trustingly proffered a hand-crocheted scarf or newly cultivated "Gaga" orchid will be lucky if they don't see their handiwork passed on to & binned by an assistant.

My point is, this BI doesn't indicate some massive breach in pop/rock star-fan drug-abuse etiquette, OR safety standards--not where addictive drugs are concerned. A-list or No-List, an addict's desperation or greed will often overwhelm judgement, & safety is of far less concern than the immediate need to get high or get straight.

If Gaga's gotta have coke, her fan Joe Blow will be honored to think he made her happy. Or if Cindy School-boy shows up with a box at Selena's mansion, & tells Lil Swizzlestick it's filled with bottles of sizzurp she squirrelled away for Bieber, cos she <3s him sooo... The brat will be sucking down a bottle & dragging the case inside before Cindy even gets to her <3.

Keith Richard & Ron Wood were millionaires many times over, but gosh--they still ended up looking like Orcs--coz even rich addicts are compelled at times to settle for whatever is available. Boils or pustules from poorly cut stuff leave nasty-a$$ scars even on Rock Gods. And Jagger's coke habit made him look ancient by the time he reached 40.

So, it's sad, nasty, ugly, & everyone loses. The head-trip of being an "idol"--& the Special treatment that quickly becomes an entitlement--is often sufficient by itself to transform people into egocentric jerks. Adding addictive drugs to the mix just highlights the sad & ugly part.

Um, sorry about the belated rant. If anyone actually reads this, it may be some consolation to know the writing roused the full ire of my R & L Carpal Tunnel (if seeking a 1st-ever Medical Condition--unless the alternative is potentially fatal--try to avoid Package deals. It's the physical equivalent of bundled software :\ )
